Brewer would be a tough foe, Lady Hornet softball coach Tracy Tadlock knew.
And playing at White Settlement amped up the April 11 game – especially since Azle (25-5, 11-1) had won the first meeting between the two state-ranked squads.
AHS led Brewer twice on the windy evening, only to see the Lady Bears claw back.
BHS even managed to overcome a 3-run Azle spurt in the top of the tenth inning to tie the contest again, at 5-5.
